𝗢𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗬𝗢𝗡 | Diplomasya, hindi giyera

Tuluyang umiinit ang mga kaganapan sa West Philippine Sea, ang pinag-aagawang teritoryo ng bansang Tsina at Pilipinas. Kamakailan lamang sa nasabing lugar ay nagbanggaan ang dalawang barko ng nasabing mga bansa na ayon sa ulat ng Philippine Star nitong Hunyo 19, pitong sundalong Pinoy ang nasugatan habang isa naman ang naputulan umano ng daliri habang kinukumpiska ng Chinese Coast Guards ang mga armas ng ating tropa. Binutas din daw ng mga Tsino ang inflatable boat ng mga sundalong Pinoy.

Matapos ang insidente, iba’t-ibang bansa ang kumondena sa aksyon ng bansang Tsina, kasama rito ang United States of America, Canada United Kingdom, South Korea, Japan, Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand, at, European Union na ayon naman kay Professor Dr. Renato De Castro, ang ganitong aksyon ng Tsina ay posibleng maging dahilan upang ma-evoke ang mutual defense treaty ng Pilipinas sa Amerika.

Sa kabila ng mga suportang natanggap ng Pilipinas mula sa ibang bansa hinggil sa isyu, kung ang mga Pinoy ay kalalabanin ang Tsina gamit ang dahas at puwersang militar, malinaw na ito ay matatalo. Maliit ang bansang Pilipinas kumpara sa dambuhalang Tsina. Kaya bagamat hindi dapat isuko ang ating teritoryo, dapat diplomasya o ang pagpapanatili ng mapayapang relasyon sa Tsina ang tahaking daan ng ating gobyerno, hindi giyera.

𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 | CEd student grabs 1st spot in SDG IZN Challenge 2024 Essay Writing

Ms. Jessica Soriano, a third-year student from the College of Education (CEd), won the first place in the Essay Writing contest of the "17 Goals, Endless Creativity: The SDG Internationalization Challenge 2024," hosted by Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU), May 31.

Soriano's essay centered on SDG 5 Gender Equality, titled: "Breaking Barriers: Embracing the Diversity and Inclusivity of the LGBTQIA+ Community."

According to her, she wanted to promote and achieve gender equality and empower not only the women but also the LGBTQIA+ Community.

"Nagkaroon kasi ako ng girlfriend noon at isa iyon sa ginawa kong motibasyon sa pagpili ng SDG, kasi nakaranas siya ng panghuhusga. And we are also aware na even though may mga laws na nagproprotekta sa kanila, still, hindi pa rin sila nakararamdam o nakakukuha ng pantay na karapatan," Soriano said in an online interview.

The participants of the said event were instructed to focus their essays on only one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Said activity was open to all the students currently enrolled in undergraduate and postgraduate programs at any tertiary institution (university, college) within the Asia-Pacific Region.

𝗢𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗬𝗢𝗡 | Sa likod ng mga numero

Sa mata ng akademiya, isa ako sa mga patuloy na naghahangad ng gantimpalang nagmumula sa mga numero dahil ang kasiyahan ko ay nakadepende rito, dahil kung pataasan lamang ng grado ay hindi ako natatalo.

Ito ang tinatawag nilang academic validation, at kaya kong ubusin at sirain ang sarili ko para rito. Kaya kong magpakalunod sa matapang na kape at salubungin ang pag-akyat ng araw makamit ko lamang ang mga palakpakang nagdadakila sa aking mga grado. Hindi maikakaila, ay lubos na pumupuna sa kakulangan sa sarili ko. Pero ganito na lang ba palagi? Ito ba ang kahulugan ng buhay kolehiyo ko?

Nang magsimula ang yugto ng buhay kolehiyo ko sa loob ng Tarlac Agricultural University, na kailanman ay hindi ko inaasahang makatutungtong ako, puspusan ang aking pagpupunyagi kasama ang mga libro at papel. Kaya kong libangin ang sarili ko sa pag-aaral ng ilang oras. Minsan nga’y hindi ko na mabilang kung ilang stik ng 3 in 1 coffee ang nauubos ko habang pinipilit na labanan ang antok ng buong katawan ko. Hindi ko na rin mabilang kung ilang beses ko nang kinamuhian ang aking sarili dahil hindi ito makasabay sa mga leksyon na aking inaaral. Minsan pa nga’y nagtanong na rin ang pamilya ko kung natutulog pa ba ako. Pero wala akong sagot, dahil hindi ko na maalala kung kailan ba ang huling gabing maayos ang tulog ko.

Kung nagsasabay-sabay man ang pagsusulit sa mga major at minor subjects, hindi ako pumapayag na isuko ni isa sa mga ito. Pinipili kong aralin ang lahat kahit ang katawan ko ay pagod na. Hindi naman ako matalino, marunong lang ako. Kaya sa tuwing nakakukuha ako ng mataas na grado sa pagsusulit—saya at kaginhawaan ang nararamdaman ko. Parang nanalo sa lotto dahil sulit ang bente-kuwatro oras na mulat ang mga mata ko. Pero sa kalagitnaan ng gabi habang sinusunog ko ang aking mga kilay, sumasagid din sa akin ang katanungang: “Lagi ko na lang bang uubusin ang sarili ko para dito?”

Sa kasalukuyan, marahil marami sa atin na iniisip na tuwing hindi tayo nakakakuha ng mataas na gradong katumbas ng ating pinaghirapang aralin, isa itong kabiguan. Ngunit sa pagpupursige mong abutin ang akademikong tagumpay, makamit ang numerong inaasam-asam, nawa’y huwag mong kalimutang magpahinga.

Sa pagdaan ng araw napagtanto ko na hindi dapat umiikot ang buhay ko sa paghahabol ng academic validation. Mahalaga ang karangalang nakukuha sa pamantasan, gayon din ang edukasyon, ngunit mas mahalaga ang ating kalusugan at hindi lamang sa pag-aaral umuunlad ang isang tao. Dahil minsan, ang labis na pagkahumaling sa mga matataas na marka ay nagiging dahilan ng pagkaubos ng ating enerhiya, kaligayahan—ang buong sarili.

Para sa mga kapwa ko estudyante, huwag nating hayaang ang ating halaga ay matukoy lamang ng mga numero. Matutunan nating pahalagahan ang ating sarili at bigyan ng panahong magpahinga. Magsikap at mangarap, ngunit huwag kalimutan ang ating kalusugan at kaligayahan sa proseso. Dahil ang tunay na tagumpay ay hindi lamang nasusukat sa mga grado o diploma, kundi sa ating kakayahang mapanatili ang balanseng buhay, magkaroon ng oras sa pamilya at kaibigan, at pagpapahalaga sa ating sarili.

Magtapos tayo nang may karunungan, ngunit huwag kalimutang alagaan ang ating puso at isipan. Mahalaga ang magtagumpay, ngunit mas mahalaga ang manatiling buo sa kabila ng ating mga pagsusumikap.

𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 | TAU new president, Salunson to target premier smart university

Prior to being elected by the university's Board of Regents (BOR) as the new president of Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU), Dr. Silverio Ramon DC. Salunson primarily shared his vision for the institution and acknowledged all the pressing issues faced by the students, alumni, academics, and non-academic staff within the community during the public forum held at the TAU Student and Alumni Center, May 17, two weeks before the said election on May 28.

"Our vision for TAU, with four years of dedication, hard work, collaboration, and partnership, is that TAU has the great potential to be on par with higher education institutions in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Region," Salunson stated in the forum, while noting: "it is not I, but we; it is not you, but us, that can make Tarlac Agricultural University a premier smart university."

In his presentation during the forum, he hoped to serve not only TAU and the province of Tarlac but also the entire nation. ‘I love TAU; this is my home, this is the place I belong. I love the challenges and the process and to continue to strive to be excellent,’ he emphasized.

𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀

Salunson aimed at achieving sustainability and stability throughout his entire term through his proposed SMART TAU strategy designed to enhance the welfare of the institution. To achieve his vision for the institution as Central Luzon's premier smart university that cultivates a culture of excellence in higher education, he emphasized the need for collaborative effort, open communication, and shared commitment within the TAU community.

In addition, these strategies were also included in his six development goals namely: smart people, smart learning, smart research extension and training, smart learning environment, smart technology, and smart security, in which all he considered crucial for transforming TAU into a model of excellence and innovation in higher education. "These will serve as a guide in crafting strategies relevant to realization of dreams and aspirations for TAU to be a premier smart university," he underscored.

After presenting his vision, mission, and goals, Salunson then faced questions highlighting the specific platforms, projects, and related strategies he will be implementing to address the pressing issues of the people within his jurisdiction.

𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘆, 𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗻𝗶, 𝗻𝗼𝗻-𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗳, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀' 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀

When asked about his platforms to ensure the welfare of the TAU faculty members, he stressed the importance of regular faculty consultation and meeting, regular update of faculty development program for the faculty, providing both permanent and temporary faculty a scholarship necessarily important for pursuing their masteral and doctorate degree, and establishing a faculty center essential for their professional development.

For alumni in terms of representation concerns, Dr. Salunson aimed to create an alumni directory accompanied by a resource center for recruitment. He also emphasized the need for regular alumni homecoming and regular meetings to facilitate an open-door policy.

Meanwhile, in response to non-teaching staff being overlooked and least prioritized in the matter of career promotion, Salunson pointed out the significance of flexible workload, scholarship, partnership, and providing training aligned to non-teaching personnel's specialization because for him "without the non-academic staff, even the janitor who maintains cleanliness, our university would not be tidy.”

Moreover, with the continuous challenges faced by students in terms of access to an organized and functional dormitory, Salunson suggested building more infrastructures in collaboration with the local government unit (LGU). According to him, this initiative will help boost the university's population and by constructing more dormitories, more students will be encouraged to study at TAU.

𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿'𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲: 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀

During the final round of the forum, Salunson expressed his disagreement and stance against engaging in any underground activities associated with contractors during the procurement process. "Hindi po natin papayagan yan [mga kontraktor na nagbibigay ng porsyento]. Unang-una po, we will have a perfect recruitment and as much as possible aalisin po natin ang underground activities nila," he stated.

He also emphasized that if allowed by the law, the savings obtained by the university from such practices would be used to fund other projects. However, he made it clear that he would not condone any unethical practices in his entire term. "As much as possible po ay idaraan natin sa tamang proseso ang procurement natin," Dr. Salunson added.

Dr. Salunson has been elected as the university's president and officially assumed the position right after the oath taking, May 30.

Meanwhile, Dr. Max P. Guillermo, former President of TAU, held a ceremonial turnover, passing the mace to Dr. Silverio Ramon DC. Salunson, the newly elected President of the aforesaid institution, June 3.

Sa tahimik mong puso, kapayapaan ang tanging natamo. Tila isang ina, pinagbuklod mo ang mga tao, pinagkaisa, namuhay nang payapa, masaya, at may sigla.

Sa paglisan ng iyong katahimikan, ang pamayanang iyong pinagbuklod tila iyong iniwan. Inihayag mo ang nakatagong p**t at hinaing sa iyong damdamin. Ang dating pamayanang masigla, ngayo'y nabalot na ng takot at pangamba.

At sa pagsiklab ng nagbabaga niyang damdamin, narito ang ilang naratibo ng pagsusumamo, hinaing, at hiling sa muling pagbuga mo ng abo sa langit, Kanlaon

𝐎𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐘𝐎𝐍 | Ngunit sino ako kung walang medalya?

Sa pitong taon ko sa elementarya, apat na taon sa sekondarya at dalawang taon sa Senior High, kumusta kaya ang buhay ko ngayong kolehiyo kung wala ang lahat ng medalyang natamo ko?

Ganito pala sa kolehiyo. Sa sistemang puno ng mga pagsubok at kompetisyon, ang mga medalya at tropeo ay nagiging simbolo ng tagumpay at kahusayan. Subalit sa kabila ng ningning ng medalya, hindi ko pa rin maiwasang itanong sa aking sarili: “ngunit sino nga ba ako kung walang medalya?”

Ako ay isang kolehiyalang nag-aaral sa Unibersidad na kagalang-galang at mataas ang pagpapahalaga sa dekalidad na edukasyon para sa lahat ng mag-aaral. Walang pinipiling edad, kasarian, pagkakakilanlan at pagkakaiba-iba ng kultura. Ang bawat mag-aaral ay nabibigyan ng pagkakataon na marinig ang kanilang samu’t saring suliranin at hinaing. Ngunit, kumustahin natin ang aking mga kapwa estudyante.

Ibang-iba nga ang patakaran at karanasan sa kolehiyo kumpara sa labing-dalawang baitang na aking nalampasan. Noong ako’y nasa sekondarya, lahat ng mabababang grado ay grabe kung aking dibdibin at iyakan, ngunit sa paglipas ng taon, sa kolehiyo okay na ang dos at tres basta pasado.

Ilang taon na rin akong nag-aaral bilang kolehiyo, nabibilang na rin ang mga araw at buwan bago ko lisanin ang magandang paaralan na nagbigay sakin ng napakaraming aral. Sunod-sunod na oportunidad ang aking naranasan, iba’t ibang kulay ng medalya ang aking natanggap, mayroong ginto, pilak at tanso na siyang patunay ng sakripisyo, dedikasyon, at sipag na aking inilaan sa lahat ng larangan na aking piniling pasukan. Ngunit, sa likod ng bawat medalya, sertipiko at tropeo, kaakibat nito ang pagdududa sa aking sariling kakayahan at talento. Halo-halong emosyon, ngunit kaba ang nangingibabaw na siyang nagdidikta sa aking isipan na, “paano kung wala ang lahat ng mga ito sayo, sino ka bilang mag-aaral ng kolehiyo?”

Hindi natin maikakaila, bilang isang estudyante kolehiyo, marami sa atin ang nakatatak sa kaisipan ay, ang tagumpay ay nasusukat sa dami ng ating mga nakamit na parangal. Ang pagkakaroon ng mga medalya ay tila naging isang pamantayan na sinusukat ang bawat katalinuhan, kagalingan at abilidad ng bawat mag-aaral. Kung kaya, ang ibang mag-aaral ay grabe kung maghabol para lang masabing mayroon silang parangal na nakuha. Tama nga sila, na kahit with highest honor ka pa sa nakalipas na taon, sa kolehiyo babalik ka sa umpisa. Bagong panimula, pagong pagkadapa, bagong mga aral at gabi-gabing puyat, pag-iyak at pangamba. Ngunit, hindi solusyon ang pagtunganga o ang katagang, “bahala na si Batman” sapagkat kung wala kang gawa, wala kang mapapala.

Sa huli, sa aking sariling opinyon, ang tanong na “ngunit sino ako kung walang medalya?” ay isang paalala na ang tunay na katalinuhan o kagalingan ng isang mag-aaral ay wala sa kanyang makikinang na medalya at makapal na sertipiko, ngunit ito ay nasa kanyang mga prinsipyo, karakter, at magandang ginawa hindi lamang sa kanyang sarili, kundi narin sa kanyang kapwa, at ito ang higit na pinakamahalagang gantimpala na matatamo ng isang mag-aaral kaysa sa medalya na sa paglipas ng panahon ay mangangalawang.

Kaya naman sa lahat ng mga mag-aaral, ang katalinuhan at kagalingan ay hindi nasusukat sa paramihan ng medalya. Maaring ito ay magbigay mga panandaliang kasiyahan at pagkilala, ngunit ang tunay na tagumpay ay makakamtan sa pamamagitan ng pagiging isang mabuting tao at walang tinatapakang indibidwal. Dahil sa huli, ang bawat isa sa atin ay may kanya-kanyang kwento ng tagumpay at pakikibaka.

Samakatuwid, ngunit sino nga ba ako, kung walang medalya? Malamang sa malamang, ako ay AKO. Kahit walang medalyang nakasabit sa aking leeg, hindi doon matatapos ang pag-unlad bilang tao. Sapagkat, pagkatapos ko sa kolehiyo, hindi medalya ang tutulong sa akin sa pagharap ko sa totoong labanan ng buhay, ngunit determinasyon, integridad at aral na natutunan ang siyang aking kaagapay at sandalan upang maging matagumpay at marangal na mamamayan na hindi masusukat ng anumang materyal na kagamitan.
